Governance, Community

Would you like to represent GNUUC at the UUA Virtual General Assembly?

Governance, Community

The UUA’s General Assembly planning committee has created a totally on-line GA for 2026—and scheduling of the business and program segments will be very different. Check it out and consider being a delegate—again or for the first time! GNUUC is looking for 2 people to represent us as the business of our association is conducted.

See the full schedule (Note: delegates should be available to participate at least in General Sessions 1-5; budget hearing optional) The congregation has funds to help cover delegates’ registration fees.

Contact Rev. Denise (revdenise@gnuuc.org) for more information or to volunteer to be a delegate. The Board will select/approve delegates.

Congregational Meeting Vote Results

Governance, Community

GNUUC Members,

The members of the Contract to Call Task Force (Ryan D., Carol L., and Kristin R.) wanted to thank you for the exceptional turn out at Sunday's Congregational Meeting. We also wanted to thank each and every one of you for your engagement and honest reflections throughout this process. We truly feel like we are a more cohesive and healthy congregation now than we were several months ago. This process has strengthened us in ways that will service us well into the future.

The resolution proposed during the meeting was:

"That the Greater Nashville Unitarian Universalist Congregation call Reverend Denise Gyauch to be our Settled Minister, effective immediately, upon the terms and conditions outlined in the Ministerial Agreement to be signed pending an acceptable and accepted congregational call vote."

Of our 51 Voting members, we had 42 people participate in Congregational Meeting and vote via in-person vote, Zoom vote, proxy vote, and absentee vote. Of the 42 participants, 41 people voted for the resolution and 1 person voted against.

The resolution passed. Reverend Denise in turn, accepted the call and signed the Ministerial Agreement.

We also invite all members and friends to join us for a Shared Ministry meeting on Sunday, March 1 at 1 PM. Ryan D. and Rev. Denise will lead the meeting. We'll review the Suggestions for the Future document. Look for upcoming announcements!

And with that information, the work of our Contract to Call Task Force is finished. It has been our honor to serve you.

With love,

Kristin R.
Ryan D.
Carol L.

Sat., Mar. 7, 2 -5 PM: Spoken Word Poetry Workshop

Community, RE & Covenant Groups

Date & Time: Saturday, March 7, 2:oo - 5:00 PM

Facilitator: Kayla Z.

Cookies Provided!

RSVP: to Kayla, or just show up!

Please join us for a Spoken Word Poetry Workshop! I am so excited to be facilitating this event as an opportunity for healing and joy in the face of everything that is going on in the world and in our personal lives.

If you're interested in my "why" behind hosting this event, please check out this TED Talk! While short for a TED Talk, it is about 13 minutes long, fair warning! :) I think it is worth the watch, though, otherwise I would not have shared it with you.

Please do not think that you have to be "good at writing" or "good at poetry" or "creative" to attend! In fact, I am designing this afternoon to be very friendly to people who have never explored Spoken Word Poetry as an art form before!

We will do the following during our time together:

We will create a very brief covenant to create a safe space for all.

We will view some examples of Spoken Word and discuss what about them makes them "good."

We will have time to work on our own craft (poetry), pencils, pens, highlighters, paper and prompts provided!

We will have a time for those who *want* to share to share at the end. Participants are encouraged to share what they have created, but under no circumstances should you feel that this is a requirement!

The primary goal of our time together will be to explore an art form (Spoken Word Poetry) that you may or may not have considered as art before. This workshop will set you up with the tools you need to be able to craft your own writing, and hopefully that is something you can take with you to play with in the future!

If you could let me know ahead of time if you plan on coming, that will help me know how many copies of things to have on hand! :) If you decide to come last minute, no worries, there will be extra!

Climate Justice Revival – Part 3: Action Planning Workshop

Join us for Part 3 of our Climate Justice Revival, where we will focus on building our congregational action plan for climate justice.

You do not need to have attended previously to participate—everyone is welcome.

For the first time in memory, the entire Unitarian Universalist ecosystem is mobilizing together for climate justice. We are all deeply aware of the urgency of the climate crisis. Even seasoned environmental advocates often feel overwhelmed or powerless. But together, we are powerful.

Thousands of UUs across the globe are uniting in a denominational Climate Justice Revival, aimed at re-energizing our shared commitment and launching coordinated, effective action.

During our congregational workshop, we will:

-Review our insights and goals from Workshop 1 and 2
-Continue with our Green Sanctuary efforts

This is a rare moment of collaboration and collective purpose across UU congregations. It's not often that our churches act in concert, and this Revival series is a unique opportunity to be part of something larger than ourselves. The day promises not only to be meaningful, but also energizing and fun.

Let’s join hands in faith, courage, and action.
